Lethal Legacy (Guardians of Justice #3)Lethal Legacy by Irene Hannon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

LETHAL LEGACY, the third installment in the Guardians of Justice series did not disappoint.

Kelly Warren is in search of the truth regarding the unexpected death of her father. Though his death was labeled a suicide, she knows her father would’ve never taken his own life. When Detective Cole Taylor gets involved in her case, he finds peculiarities and new evidence that might just point to murder. Kelly appreciates Cole’s tenacity, but also finds herself interested in Cole on a more personal level.

Detective Cole Taylor looks into the death of Kelly’s father merely as a formality to assist a grieving family member. But, he soon finds himself with evidence that not only proves Mr. Warren did not kill himself, but that his ties to a dangerous group of people might have something to do with the threats on Kelly’s life. Knowing Kelly’s life is in danger, Cole watches out for her safety, and realizes his need to protect her is not only on a professional level, but fueled by his growing feelings for her. Together, Cole and Kelly dig below the surface and find that not only was her father’s death murder, but that a cover-up is underway as well.

LETHAL LEGACY was a quick read because I found myself not wanting to put the book down. Irene Hannon’s knack for writing intriguing stories puts her on my list of favorite authors. Weaving suspense, romance, interesting characters and unique story lines, makes LETHAL LEGACY the perfect escape from the everyday grind. Though you know on the outset what the outcome will be for the hero and heroine, it does not diminish the impact of the journey.

“Available August 2012 at your favorite bookseller from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.”
